LAS VEGAS—The 2018 edition of the AVN Novelty Expo wrapped up a successful three-day run Friday, with buyers and attendees taking in all that exhibitors had to offer.
Nexus is making a renewed push into the U.S. market, and to that end showcased its REvo Slim prostate manager and the Ultra Si. The new Revo Slim prostate massager of Nexus perfect for beginners or for those who prefer a smaller product. Despite the smaller size than the other items, the Revo Slim will deliver intense, targeted stimulation of the prostate and perineum. The silicone shaft is smaller than the rest of the range and rotates in both directions. It gives 34 combinations of pleasure combined with two speeds. The rotating shaft delivers six stimulation modes; choose from slow, medium, fast, slow pulse, fast pulse and escalating. Ultra Si is a prostate massager that combines luxury silicone with firm polypropylene for enhanced dual density sensations. Using the effective shape of the Nexus Neo, this dual prostate and perineum massager is designed to fit comfortably within the male form. The shaft is shaped to massage the prostate internally whilst the stainless steel rollerball gently rolls against the perineum, delivering a licking sensation to the user.
